The Alternate Routes – “Love Me For Nothing”
[Verse 1]
G C Em C
You're running out of space. I'm running out of things to wear twice
G C Em C
But some things I can see. I like the way you do your hair nice
G C Em C
And what else do I know? Everybody needs a thrill
G D
And you are that for me. I put your picture on my windowsill
[Chorus 1]
C Em G
And if you think that you can love me for nothing
C Em G
Well maybe we can be something for good
C Em Bm
And if you wanna be somebody's something
Bm/A C G
Then I'm leaving today If you're going my way
[Verse 2]
G C Em C
There's nothing on my plate They say I've got some shoes to fill
G C Em C
So I think I'll take a walk Somewhere I can pay my bills
G D
And you're free to come along If you've got some time to kill
[Chorus 3]
C Em
And if you think that you can love me for nothing
C Em G
Well maybe we can be something for good
C Em Bm
And if you wanna be somebody's something
Bm/A C G
Then I'm leaving today If you're going my way

Do you know what you're looking for When you're looking my way? Hey Hey Hey
[Chorus 3]
C Em G
And if you think that you can love me for nothing
C Em G
Well maybe we can be something for good

And if you wanna be somebody's something
Bm/A C C G
I could make it okay, But I'm leaving today If you're going my way
